Hello, Filipino cosmetic lovers and aspiring makeup artists!

We hope that you have enrolled yourselves already as June is only a few days away! Soon, you will be hitting the school grounds, learning new lessons and making more memories with your best friends. It’s time to get out of your cozy bed and ask your family to go back-to-school shopping with you! A fun bonding sesh with your loved ones will surely boost your cheery levels. Besides, it’s also good to have some company when it comes to decision-making in shopping (whether it is about shoes, accessories or school supplies). You know, there are a lot of products in stores, yet you only need a few so make sure that you only get the best and essential ones.

Speaking of the essential ones, we expect that beauty products are on your shopping lists. After all, #MakeupIsLife! And when it comes to school, cosmetics are a yes to keep on looking prim and fresh even after 5^th period Trigonometry! To give you a heads-up on what products should comprise your makeup kit, we have curated different cosmetics that will likely fit your needs.

 

Foundation

When someone asks you “who’s your newfound friend?” proudly raise this foundation! The Duo Finish Foundation by Vice Cosmetics has eight (8) shades that suit the skin tone of every Filipino. It provides a flawless look from light to full coverage. Plus, it’s multi-use! You can apply it with a wet sponge (for a sheer look), or a dry sponge (for a matte look). It’s also a guilt-free cosmetic and an exciting treat for your skin! Its price is Php245.00, and it’s available at Vice Cosmetics kiosks nationwide.

 

Eyebrow Pencil

Be more confident on your first day of school knowing that you’ve got the Liza Soberano vibe with you. That’s right, replicate the eyebrows of your favorite Filipino celebrity idols with the Brow Define and Blend retractable pencil from Maybelline! It’s a personal favorite by makeup artists as its thin angled tip draws realistic brows. It also comes with a brush at the opposite end that properly blends the strokes for a more defined but natural look. Its retail price is Php249.00, and you can avail it online or in different stores nationwide.

 

Mascara

The heat and the rain are the worst enemies of mascaras as these factors make the result clumpy and smudged. Happy Skin formulated the bristle-free At Long Lash Supercurl Waterproof Mascara. Your eyelashes can now stay long and curled amid the rain, sweat, sebum, and tears. You can get this at malls nationwide and on Happy Skin’s official website. It’s a little bit pricey at Php999.00. But according to Filipino makeup artists, it’s a pretty good investment as its results are totally worth it!

 

Lipstick

You deserve a kickass lipstick for a classy you! And for that, Human Nature got your lips! It has five (5) shades of Made to Bloom lipsticks which are very wearable. Its creamy formula is rich in organic ingredients which beautifies your lips while moisturizing it. Say chapped lips no more! You can get these at supermalls for only Php495.00.

 

Kit

Of course, your back-to-school makeup kit will not be complete without a pouch! Luckily, BLK has dainty handy bags that can fit your makeup essentials. These cute bags are available in different colors and priced at Php249.00. Avail them at BLK kiosks nationwide or order through their official website.
